BAFTA award winning and London based animation production company, Studio AKA, have created some of my favourite TV advertising such as the National Lottery's Big Win and Lloyd's TSB For the Journey series.

I love the innocent feel, vintage style and grainy texture of these beautifully animated ads and the music is a perfect marriage to the 'look'. The characters have a very French style that I have seen many (French) illustrators capture.

Incidentally, last year, Studio AKA also animated Oliver Jeffers book Lost and Found and Helen Ward's Varmints into 24 minute shorts. They both translated very well into animations.
